Shabby Chic Rose Painting Archive

This is the first post of my new blog of old sold soft rose paintings or shabby chic for want of a better word.
They were all sold with beautiful rustic whitewashed frames which I collected from garage sales and op shops and recycled them ..... Alas they are not available in the frames which I may post for an examples of how they may look framed.
For more details about painting please visit the Shabby Tea Pot Roses Print Page at the top of this Post
